The M4250 ships with a second interface built for AV work, where colour-coded port profiles replace multicast theory. Assign a port the Dante profile and IGMP, QoS and VLAN behaviour are set correctly without touching a command line. Connect two M4250 units and Auto-Trunk and Auto-LAG configure the link between them automatically.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNETGEAR\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGSM4230UP-100NAS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLine\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNETGEAR AV Line M4250\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eManagement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFully managed, AV web GUI plus standard IT GUI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMulticast\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNETGEAR IGMP Plus\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow does it connect?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLine\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNETGEAR AV Line M4250\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eManagement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFully managed, AV web GUI plus standard IT GUI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMulticast\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNETGEAR IGMP Plus\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConsole\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSB-C and RJ45 RS232\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNETGEAR limited lifetime with support\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat are the key specifications?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal Number of Network Ports: 24\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUplink Port: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModular: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePort\/Expansion Slot Details: 24 x Gigabit Ethernet PoE++\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePort\/Expansion Slot Details: 2 x Gigabit Ethernet Network\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy choose NETGEAR?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNETGEAR built this line with AV integrators rather than for them, which is why it is the switch specified on most Dante and NDI jobs.
